...Breakup. Specifically, the legislation would give the Federal Trade Commission authority to supervise the breakup. The companies, which now produce, refine, transport and market their oil, would have 18 months to determine what operations to jettison, and five years to sell them off. A company could become an exploring and producing firm exclusively or a refiner-marketer. Though refining firms would be permitted to keep their service stations and other marketing facilities, they could not buy more. Companies that decided to become either producers or refiner-marketers would have to spin off their pipelines. To handle the lawsuits that would...
...highway and on the hills flanking it was a massive concentration of tanks, transport, bulldozers, communications vehicles and Jeeps. Along the route I saw at least 200 tanks, and no doubt many more were parked beyond my vision.

In addition, 192 special trains will be provided for Italian residents living elsewhere. Although voters must pay the cost of transport to the Italian border, government subsidies will allow them to travel free inside Italy and even get free tickets for ferries from the mainland to Sardinia, Sicily and other islands...
...France sought to justify its plane's loud takeoff by explaining that the pilot was trying to climb unusually fast in an effort to limit noise over populated areas. British officials told an annoyed Secretary of Transport William Coleman, who has allowed the planes to land only on a 16-month trial basis, that their takeoff plans had also been changed for this reason...
